The presentation’s CEO Jen-Hsun Huang said that the demonstration of this technology was carried out with the use of new graphics card GeForce GTX TITAN. And the picture itself animated in real time.

The essence of Face Works is the processing, analysis and conversion of large amounts of data obtained through motion capture (motion capture) to that extent, can work with a $ 1000 TITAN . Thanks to technology, 25 GB of data is converted in such a way that the output is something like 300 MB.

What is interesting, Huang, decided, apparently, to pique new Xbox console and Sony , said that the performance of the video card NVIDIA TITAN enables it to cope with 4.5 teraflops of information, while the performance of PS4 is only 1.84 teraflops, and the new Xbox – 1,2 teraflops.
